Pros Small, light, easy to use, good video quality, affordable, and a HUGE optical zoom.

I decided to pick up a camcorder for an upcoming vacation, so I started doing some research. I read all of the reviews I could find, did side-by-side comparisons with the camcorders in my price range, and went to a local shop to check out a bunch of them in person. I finally decided on the GS35,... Read full review »

Pros A great zoom, small, weight, good capability - in sunlight only. Good sound.
Cons Forget about using the GS35 indoors/night: Grainy details & Washed out colours.
Recommended it? No

Picture Quality (...or lack thereof)

As a former owner of a commendable Panasonic NVDS27 which was pilfered, I sought a replacement. Several reviews led me to believe that the GS35 was a good & relatively inexpensive camcorder. But, I really should have paid more attention to the... Read full review »

Pros Optical Zoom is great, Joystick menus are a plus.
Cons AC Power/Battery Charging poorly designed, still photos.
Recommended it? Yes

I bought the Panasonic GS35 mostly for its impressive optical zoom and relatively low price for the features. I have been generally pleased with ease of use, although I have only taken a few hours of video, mostly in outdoor conditions.

The camera's joystick feature is quite nice, and... Read full review »

Great MiniDV Camcorder

Pros Small and light, good stills, overall good performance.
Cons Lens cap instead of shutter, low light performance.
Recommended it? Yes

This is my first MiniDV camcorder. I purchased it just days before a vacation when it was decided that the old Hi8 camcorder was "too big". I was able to find only one review on this cam, but between that review and the manufacturer's specs I made the decision to go with the GS35. I was not... Read full review »

Pros joystick controls, ease of use, blank tape search feature, lightweight
Cons Terrible video quality, especially indoors using available room lighting.

I purchased this camera through epinions from Crutchfield ($449). First of all, Crutchfield is a great company with outstanding reputation for shipping and returning. The camera is new from Panasonic. I'm no pro but tech savvy. Bought the camera for family video, vacations, kids, etc. Kid was an... Read full review »

Cons Low light setting not great, a bit small for large hands.

My husband and I took this camera with us on our honeymoon to Hawaii this past February. We were really pleased to be able to bring back not only pictures but also a video of our sights and events for our family to see! The quality of the video is really very nice. The camera is light weight and... Read full review »

labor warranty only 3 months

Pros Good recording in dim light
Cons Product quality
Recommended it? No

Overall fair but ours had a defect that manifested under certain conditions. However, the labor warranty expires after 3 months so they wanted $200 plus 2-way shipping to repair their defect! We barely had the thing out of the box at 3 months. Read full review »

Pros worked good for the first 4 hours.
Cons stopped working after 4 hours. panasonic service is 1500 miles away.
Recommended it? No

Purchased in May 2005, and stopped working recently after only 4 hours of use. Panasonic was no help. Told me to send it to the closest service center from Florida which is in Tennessee. It will cost 20.00 to ship it, 45.00 to look at it, and 25.00 to ship it back. And the estimate to repair it is... Read full review »
